Dips

Position yourself on a dip bar with your hands just outside shoulder-width. Fully extend your arms to lift your body, keeping your legs crossed and knees bent to avoid contact with the floor.

1. Lower your body by bending your elbows until they are at a 90-degree angle.
2. Keep your forearms vertical and your torso upright.
3. Push yourself back up to the starting position by extending your arms.
4. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

• Keep your shoulders down and back.
• Elbows should point straight back, not out to the sides.
• Control the descent; don't let your body drop.

• Going too deep, which can strain the shoulder joints.
• Flaring the elbows out to the sides.
• Letting the shoulders shrug up towards the ears.
• Hunching the back or leaning too far forward.
